Chapter 79 Youthful Arrogance
Chapter 79 Youthful Arrogance
Inside the Shence Palace,
Lin Lin, Walter, Jing Yuan, and Fu Xuan were sitting around discussing something.
Lin Lin leaned back on the soft sofa, crossed his legs, and said in a relaxed tone, "This is the method I proposed, and the necessary props have already been prepared."
Jing Yuan and Fu Xuan exchanged a glance, both seeing disbelief in each other's eyes—capture a Great Lord of Annihilation?
Do you think this is the Kingdom of Locke?!
Just throw a few Gulu balls and that's it?
This is no joke.
Walter's face also showed a cautious expression. After all, anyone who heard the name of the Destroyer Lord "Illusion" would have to think twice.
"Lin Lin, are you really confident?" he asked.
This is exactly what Jing Yuan and Fu Xuan wanted to ask.
Lin Lin gave the three of them a reassuring look—products made by the system are always top-notch.
"How could I possibly joke about you?"
He thought to himself, but said firmly, "Trust me!"
Seeing his confidence, Jing Yuan smiled and replied, "Since the train is willing to help Luofu without expecting anything in return, then Luofu naturally believes in Lin Lin's methods."
Furthermore, with a sufficiently strong lineup, even if the team ultimately fails, the losses will not be significant.
Fu Xuan nodded: "I'll go and arrange this right away. If Huanlong dares to come to Luofu, we'll make sure she doesn't leave alive."
Lin Lin extended his hand to express his gratitude for Luo Fu's trust.
The system interface quietly appeared:
[Sealed Doll Files: The Box of Annihilation.]
[Customer: A pioneer who wishes to remain anonymous.]
[Purpose: To capture energy life forms and then repackage them into harmless forms.]
[Principle: Capture technology for frequent changes in the annual Yang energy & seal technology for destiny energy.]
[Included accessory: Pure white talisman – apply to the doll's forehead to immobilize the target for 30 seconds. (Can be reapplied)]
……
In Gui Naifen's live stream, the plot continues to unfold.
Gui Naifen guided the star to the doorway and spoke to March 7th.
On March 7th, someone asked, "Xing, what do you think of General Jingyuan?"
Xing thought for a moment and replied, "She's good-looking!"
March 7th couldn't help but complain: "Who asked about your looks! Although you are indeed quite good-looking..."
Then she shared her opinion: "I think this person is much easier to talk to than Yu Kong. Otherwise, how could she be a general of the immortal ship while she can only be a helmsman? You can see how big the difference is in their way of dealing with people."
A burst of laughter filled the screen:
"Hahaha, March's been corrupted by her ability to manipulate air..."
"Suddenly realizing the Cloud Rider next to me is me, should I hear that? (awkward.jpg)"
"Straightforward and adorable March, my mouth double!"
Jingyuan: We'll take turns playing the good cop and the bad cop. Yukong: The bad cop.
......
The story continues.
Walter quickly guessed Jing Yuan's intention: Blade may have broken free from the control of the Immortal Ship, and the other party wanted to use the train to lure out the Star Core Hunter "Kafka".
After the three people on the train set off to find Kaffa, the scene shifts—
The melodious strains of the classic fairy boat tune echoed through the Shence Mansion.
The projections of Jing Yuan, Yan Qing, and Fu Xuan are conversing.
"Grand Diviner, you heard my conversation with them. What are your thoughts?" Jing Yuan asked with a smile, looking at Fu Xuan's projection.
Fu Xuan snorted lightly, placing one hand on her hip with an air of arrogance: "What's your opinion?" she countered, "Do you want me to cast a divination for these people, to predict their intentions and whether they've come at a good or bad time?"
Jing Yuan shook his head, looking confident: "That's not necessary. The Star Train has nothing to do with this, I'm absolutely certain. We don't need to delve into their intentions, as long as we take the bait and catch the fish, that's enough."
Fu Xuan retorted, "This was my suggestion, General."
Jing Yuan smiled and praised, "Yes, it's all thanks to Fu Qing's wisdom and foresight. We'll rely on you for everything from now on."
Fu Xuan uttered a startling remark: "Hmph, then you should abdicate sooner rather than later."
Her mature-beyond-her-years demeanor instantly attracted the attention of the lecherous men in the live stream:
"White stockings, so tiny and cute!"
"To make General Jingyuan abdicate? Is that something I can listen to?"
"There's no need to be surprised. In fact, the old lady Taibu has never hidden this thought."
Fu Xuan: The title of general takes turns, and this year it's my turn!
......
Jing Yuan simply shook his head and coaxed, "It's not the right time yet. If anything changes, I have to take responsibility as a general. I can't just leave now and put Fu Qing in an unjust position."
Fu Xuan said with dissatisfaction, "If you had handed the Star Core Hunter (Blade) over to me earlier, I wouldn't have so many troubles now."
She was utterly bewildered. "What are you thinking, Jingyuan? Could it be... that you deliberately let them escape?!"
"Me?" Jing Yuan avoided her gaze and walked to the window. "How could I possibly be as prescient as Fu Qing? The Yunqi Army's guard duty was inadequate; I bear responsibility."
Fu Xuan reluctantly expressed his understanding, but was still unwilling to give up: "Next time the Six Emperors hold a council, you should fulfill your promise to recommend me to succeed as general, right..."
Upon hearing this, Jing Yuan replied in his usual coaxing tone, "Okay, okay, I know! I have other things to do. I'll leave the rest to the 'exceptionally gifted' Fu Qing."
As soon as he finished speaking, Fu Xuan's projection disappeared—it seemed he didn't want to hear Jing Yuan's empty promises anymore and ended the conversation directly.
The comments section became lively again:
"Oh ho! Jingyuan avoided it!"
"Looking at it this way, is the big fish we caught really just a Star Core Hunter?"
"That's like talking to a child, so perfunctory!"
Fu Xuan: This is boring, I'm hanging up!
......
This attitude infuriated Fu Xuan, who had just left the Shence Mansion, and he almost wanted to turn back and argue with Jing Yuan again.
But remembering that she had important business to attend to, she suppressed her impulse.
......
The story continues.
Jing Yuan looked in the direction where Fu Xuan disappeared and sighed softly: "The troubles on the immortal ship, the documents on the desk, the weeds in the flower bed—these are the only three things that I can never get rid of no matter how hard I try."
Seeing the general's distress, Yanqing said with ease, "The matter of the star core isn't that troublesome. If the person escapes, we can just bring them back. Just give the order, General, and I'll solve your problem immediately."
Jing Yuan gently instructed, "I know you're anxious, eager to do something and accomplish something. But now is not the time. If you want to win the title of 'Sword Master,' you must not act rashly, especially not engage in armed combat with serious criminals."
Yanqing retorted, unconvinced: "Does the general really think I would lose to that 'Blade'?"
Jing Yuan explained, "I'm telling you to be patient, Yanqing. Slow and steady wins the race. The mystery of the 'Star Core' hasn't been solved yet; for now, we need to remain still..."
Yan Qing said arrogantly, "I think the fastest way is to capture both Star Core Hunters and send them to Fu Taibu for interrogation."
Jing Yuan shook his head: "This matter has already been entrusted to the passengers on the train. Don't rush, once the overall situation is settled, you will have your chance to prove yourself."
After listening, Yanqing frowned, then turned and left without saying a word...
The young man had lofty ambitions and always wanted to prove himself to his master.
How could they possibly heed this teaching of "patience" and "waiting"?
Jingyuan was left talking to himself: "You are the person I trust the most. There are some things I can only do with peace of mind if I entrust them to you."
"Yanqing...I have an assignment..."
The live chat was filled with jokes again:
Yanqing: General, I'm not listening to your chanting.
"Yanqing is upset that they entrusted the task to outsiders instead of their own people!"
Jingyuan: A failed attempt to make a promise!
"Yanqing: Now I finally understand why the Grand Diviner is always so angry!"
